One of the worst things about it is the loneliness. It was 2018, and I was 26 years old at the time. For years, doctors had been trying to get to the bottom of some breathing issues I had. I’d already been administered every allergy test available, and I underwent a sinus surgery to improve airflow through my nasal passage. But still, I was prone to getting bronchitis, having shortness of breath, and, even with daily physical exercise, I had the lung capacity of someone double my age. My primary doctor finally decided to set me up for a chest X-ray.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds.

Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday. Many return to street encampments when their time in the pallet shelter runs out, Jessica Prosser, homeless services director for the city, said. Then, the city sweeps the encampment again, and they get to come back to the shelter for another 30 days, Prosser explained. This process can repeat multiple times.
